We will be taking a field trip to Downers Grove as part of our Social Studies unit about our city on Thursday, November 29th from 9 am to 2 pm. Everyone will eat at Giordano's restaurant (please send a cold lunch if your child decides not sign up for a pizza lunch). If you would like, though it is not necessary, students can also bring $5-$8 in cash on the day of the field trip. Your student can spend this money at any of the downtown Downers Grove shops. Each student will be responsible for their own money. Please send in the permission slip by November 16th.  Thank you!
